LONDON (MarketWatch) -- Outdoor advertising company JC Decaux SA
DEC, -2.91%
said Wednesday that its second-quarter revenue rose 10.9% to 503.6 million euros ($637.5 million). The growth was driven by a 32.7% rise in revenue at its transport division to 126.9 million euros. The division, which provides advertising at airports, grew due to the acquisition of of MediaNation and Media Partners International in China. JC Decaux reaffirmed its target for organic revenue growth to exceed 6% in 2006.
